ah ah, well, that lives with his allied life on r t and with patients already forced to q for hours to get into hospitals in the u . k. paramedics warn of an awfully unprecedented crisis facing the ambulance service. that as the army has not been deployed to help on the program, we ask a doctor to diagnose the government's plans for the health service around 5700000 people on weight. you know, we didn't get a chance at present which saturdays, probably good to get worse before it gets better. several professors are reportedly shot dead or more than a 100 injured as violence erupt on the streets of sudan after military takeover reduces the country to chaos. also in the program, fueling disputes, europe's gas crisis, these more riffs emerge within the e u both ahead of an during and emergency energy meeting about how to prevent

future price strong. ah, welcome to the program here on our t international lycra, moscow just after 5 pm on tuesday. now, just want to give you an update on a story, a news story coming to us from paris. i don't know if you've been watching a ticket, as we call it here in the business, just a line on the bottom of your screen for the past 20 minutes has been suggesting a breaking news story out of paris. and we have got the story in full now, the reports were that an armed man had broke into the offices of a telecoms firm. having a well with the 1st i should say, but you beg your pardon? the 1st door is worth at a man broken that and reportedly had a gun. now we understand it is a false alarm of the police operation, though it has been launched. we now hear from officials to the suspect actually

turned out to be a repairman. fixing the climate control systems on the roof, so there's no breaking news on this story from paris and thank you for your patience with us here at our t. for now on the program here u k. paramedics have raised fears of what they've labeled and utterly unprecedented crisis facing the ambulance service. the n h. s. workers claim the pressures of the winter season could prove insurmountable unless the coven pandemic is brought under control. there. ah absolutely. situations where people waiting many, many hours best to get in to the hospital. and then once they've been in the hospital waiting to see a doctor course, it has a detrimental effect on anybody who's waiting for hours. and i'm didn't. so sitting in an emergency at the palms and nobody working in those 7 days wants to say that's happened, but there is a huge amount of pressure on mandate tests at amendment. it's hard to imagine, but ambulances are being forced to stay in queues lasting hours outside hospitals

as they wait for their patients. well, just to be admitted. now, a number of medics have take into social media to post pictures of the current situation. no one paramedic demanding urgent action. after showing 25 ambulance crews waiting to enter an emergency department, adding that its not even winter yet or early this month. one no patient died after waiting more than 5 hours in the back of an ambulance. we arrive on the etch and it is the middle of october. it would require an incredible amount of locked for us, not to find ourselves in the midst of a profound crisis over the next 3 months. in the mean time, the u. k. government has put the entire country on something akin to that of a war footing to deal with this crisis. i mean, can you imagine troops, soldiers, the military now being trained to drive the ambulances and we understand some, 4000 of them now and stand by to help the n h. s. cope with that over the winter season. now, earlier the defense secretary also said that these soldiers on standby are ready to

help administering vaccines, a testing for covert and other general support in the hospitals. but let's bring up the pictures for you to let you know what's going on. this is where the numbers skyrocketed in the u. k. in july, but ever since they've maintained this high level all the way to where we ought to, a doctor's fear that these numbers combined with the winter flu season could easily overwhelm the health system. and and h. s. chiefs also want the prime minister now to implement that of the more stringent a plan b for the winter. that means vaccine passports and mandatory face masks. so far the government is resisting to move much to the appointment of some on the front line. you know, there are other things that the government could couldn't could be doing. and yes, there should be absolutely seriously considering mr. this point in time before things go too far. hospital i work in has been on what we call black lab, which means that the beds are absolutely full of patients for a number of weeks now and we are not coming across the whole system. many hospitals

are very full with patients and we know that hospitals actually been at the most efficient if not absolutely pull up with patients. and it doesn't mean that it knock on effects. all those patients who are waiting for urgent surgery who require in particular intensive care pads or high dependency care on not being processed or not being cared for in a timely way. and we know that is the case. there are 5700000 people on waiting lists with indiana chess present, which is probably going to get worse before it gets better. a military take over the rest of political leaders and a state of emergency all combining to enrage protesters in sudan who have now set the capital on fire. chaotic scenes have been unraveling in the north african country now for more than 24 hours. and it has been widespread international condemnation of the power grub with washington suspending its financial aid to the

country. as we understand 7 people were reportedly shot and at least 140 injured as a result of violent clashes between protesters and the army. ah, do with things now are somewhat of an impasse, a violent impulse that is people in the streets,

there's staying out there. impetus burning cars blocking off routes by by lay roxy, though uprooted roads, brick walls across roads in the capital harpoon. many people now injured, some even kill and what they demand is that the military stay out of civilian business. they demand the release of all the ministers, the civilian leaders that have been arrested by the military. over the past 2 days, the military says that these power sharing agreement between this transitional agreement, between the military and civilian leaders, it hasn't worked. and they have recently been backed by other people, also civilians who say that things were better under the, the dictate the autocrat omar bashir, who ruled the country for 3 decades and who was deposed by public protestant, 2 $1019.00 we've seen reaction poor in internationally the united states has said

that $700000000.00 and financing assistance for the country has been suspended frozen for now, pending the, the actions of the military. they want them to release all of the civilian leaders that they've arrested. they've also condemned this and said that they had no warding, that the school was in the works to be clear, we were not given any heads up about this. there is no m a u. s. military footprint on the ground and stood and there's no training. it's not like there's disrupted some sort of training partnership relationship there. there's note that we don't have a u. s. military presence on the ground to those ends. condemnation of those support them from, from the european union, various countries that make it up or to the arab league. the african union varies some talk that perhaps this could spiral into we're into a civil war. obviously we must understand the realities, but the, the military with, with all its guns has a big advantage. they could very well use violence to reach their aim,

to restore stability. but it must also be understood that there are many people who are sick of the military who was sick of all the the autocratic rule that has been imposed on them for so many decades of the who desperately want to transition to democracy. even with all the trouble that brings it, we have seen economic collapse over the last few years in sudan, the currency collapse, the the heights in prices for fuel power, food and other commodities for now. communication with people inside sudanese, somewhat difficult because the military has gotten restricted telephone and internet networks. but one refugee from sedan that we've spoken to says this latest military takeover boots ill for his country. why. 1 it was a surprise for us. we didn't expect that he would come to this because all the sudanese people expected sedans to move in the right direction towards democracy. the entire nation had such high hopes. the military always imposes its power on the

people. we were shocked by the news that the prime minister, senior ministers in the sovereignty council and other important officials had been arrested. we received some messages from our brothers, despite the internet and other communications having been cut. the disagreements between the military and civil officials is very important because the glorious december revolution dethroned the old regime and helped to create the new government. we were counting on the new government to create a civil state here at moscow. and another rift is taking shape in the european union. after 9 member states, including germany said on monday, they would not support reform of the blocks electricity market. the dispute came ahead of an emergency meeting that took place today in luxembourg by e. u. ministers raised the disagreements of health and the crisis is the price spikes have global drivers. we should be very careful before interfering in the

design of internal energy markets. this will not be a remedy to mitigate the current price and energy prices linked to fossil fuels. markets that are in countries say they're against out of radical reforms. instead they support a foster renewable rollout and integration of e u electricity markets. but that's not the only hurdle facing block members. for example, several e u countries including from fence, lavinia, who is infrastructure minister chad, today's emergency energy meeting expressed support for the use of nuclear power. however, that very issue has previously led to in fighting among various states. as all these shot into whiskey now reports the energy crisis combined with e u countries trying to meet colbin neutrality targets, bodes well. the francis favorite form of power nuclear in brussels. the commission president hit the red button, we need a stable source, nuclear and during the transition of course, natural gas. and this is why,

as we've already stated as a commission in april, we will come forward with our taxonomy proposal. member states have been bitterly divided over nuclear power. the commission chief herself previously branded it as dangerous and the likes of austria, germany in spain, all vocal opponents. we were disconcerted to learn that in the opinion of the joined research center, there were no indication that the high risk technology that is nuclear power is more damaging to human health and to the environment than other forms of energy generation, such as wind and solar energy nuclear power, however, is a high risk technology in germany. people are concerned by the european commissions change of hot galvan. if i don't believe in nuclear power, it has been proven to be the most dangerous and expensive form of energy production at home graft nuclear power is actually not the best for the future. now their

energy sources should come 1st to in block and long term. we should move away from both fossil fuels, a nuclear energy towards natural sustainably generated power. harry frog's nuclear power is far better. received president mack on his just unveiled plans to build a new nuclear plants keys, one of several. you leaders that have been pushing the idea that nuclear is a green investment. the country's grid operate to r t e also insist that nuclear is essential to the energy portfolio. building new nuclear reactors is economically viable, especially as it makes it possible to maintain a fleet of around 40 gigawatts in 2050. but that is not an argument that's accepted by environmental organizations. nuclear power is incredibly expensive, hazardous and slow to built. building new nuclear reactors won't happen overnight

in the you. meaning that this won't be a source of power to draw from as the energy crisis bite this winter, and also possibly into next year. what you're really needs is the solution right now, and yet it's resisting the answer that many think is obvious. ask a neighbor for help. in this scenario, that's russia, which has plenty of gas to pump, overt during this pinch. some e lee doesn't know which way the wind is blowing and of even asked the commission to rethink its freeze on russia. forget about ever becoming independent from russia . this will never happen. there is also concern that this shift towards nuclear power being a form of green energy is the result of powerful lobbyists and as desperate as the e. u seems to want to forego any relationship with rush over gas. shipping to nuclear won't change the need for that relationship with moscow. not only to some

elements that are essential for nuclear vision come from russia. the country has also been helping france to process its nuclear waste. whichever way you look at it, the e and its energy needs look set to remain tightly linked to moscow. charlotte, tv ski, all fi, paris. millions of very young ask and children will face acute malnutrition this winter and could die. that is the dia warning coming from the un world food program. it says over half of the afghan population may suffer from food insecurity, with almost 3000000 children under the age of 5 among them. now of course it comes after the chaotic us withdrawal from the canister on, which led to the taliban seizing power once again. and since then, the world bank and the i m. s about really cut their aid to the country, will learn more about this right now. live to richard trench on the un food and

agriculture organization rep in afghanistan. a very warm welcome you. so thanks for joining us here and see, i know we haven't got the best connection in the world. i hope you can hear me. ok, as we understand almost $23000000.00 people and i've gotten this done a full cost of face acute food insecurity. uninstalled ation this winter. that is a up from 14000000 just 2 months ago. why isn't already awful situation rapidly becoming so much worse? first and foremost, the situation today, you know, kind of stone and looking forward is really, really alarming. it's an appalling communitarian situation that's on holding the end of last year and will into this year as good as i was hit by an acute drought. let's remember 70 percent of afghans people live in rural areas in golden agriculture. so the drought has had had a massive effect already. that's why early on this year we were already sounding the alarm. for this discouragement, hearing crisis, the last 23 months, what we've seen is a vortex of precious, a vortex,

a crisis drivers. most obviously, the massive total, almost economic impose him. it's occurred the last 2 months. also a large amount of development assistance, ultimately humanitarian assistance. but the developed assistance just been so important in recent years of basic public services health education, agriculture the like that's been suspended. so we've seen is a bad drought crisis has been transformed out into a, into a really and really quickly as well. a really big, broad, deep, terrifying material crisis. well, even today we're talking about 19000000 people who are, as we say acutely food insecure, that means they're experiencing hunger on a daily basis. and as he said, we haven't seen the worst yet. the projections are the by the end of the year in next year 23000000. that's more than 55 percent more. busy than one out of every 2 afghan men, women and children will be in that situation, not just in rural areas, but the big changes occurring now is also urban areas. and we're projecting that by

the end of the year, 9 out of 10. that kind of stands largest urban areas will be also facing acute food insecurity. as you said, this had children hard as it hits every single after on person, but it hits children hardest, rich at these numbers. you're telling us right now, i just mind boggling that this is a, an enormous catastrophe in afghanistan. right now i wanted to ask you, why has all the aid there's been pumped into the country as i understand a 1000000000 dollars since the taliban got back in control. how is that money been insufficient to deal with this crisis? first thing is you said these numbers aren't just numbers. every single number is a person. it's charlotte, it's a woman, it's a man. and i think when you think about the human impact that we're talking about here, it really is a devastating situation. rudy alarming situation. the story is not quite as clean as you as you said. in september, a higher level meeting in geneva took place a $1000000000.00 was pledge brought that about $275000000.00 has arrived in the

hands of human terrans. fm. i an organization w, p, unicef. so one of the money that was pledged has yet to arrive, but to be quite honest, it's only gonna be a drop in the ocean. the situation is, is deteriorating so quickly, so dramatically that the needs for ensure that you went to her assistance, reaches those people across the country. and some of the most remote areas miss. remember, winter is fast approaching winter in afghanistan beads, heavy snowfall. it means real problem accessing areas that the needs and the financial needs to support them are going to be massive in the coming months and into well into next year as well. but as you say, as you say, the wind, the winter is looming. a lot of afghans i live in the agricultural settings as well . money is hard to come by. you said there's been a drought in the season as well. it just, it just sounds like the, the perfect storm. frankly, i and yet the media is i can tell isn't quite doing this story justice, as you say, this is a dia, humanitarian situation there in afghanistan. i mean, i hate to seem insensitive and, and, and,

and to look at the broader picture here. but what does this mean for the future? generations of afghans if it's, if it's so bad right now, i mean it in 2 ways. first we have to separate, i believe is a, she went to tell me how to separate. we have to separate humanitarian need from politics. second, what is needed for the future? well, firstly, let's remember and you mentioned children of the star children are the worst hit. a few days, a few weeks of deep hunger can lead to stunting. it can lead to wasting these are, these are things that affect the child's life a whole life. you know, you can also retired all forms of physical development as well, including the brain as well. so let's remember that a few months now a few weeks now. unacceptable. because the impact on his children, her caught up in this that and i'm sure many of your peers of see some of the harrowing images that are coming out of afghanistan these days. secondly, look at the short term. we're talking about the country in which agriculture, as i said it's, it's, it's 80 percent of livelihoods that, you know, it was,

it's the most important sector in terms of people's lives in this collapse is now, then we're gonna be looking at massive displacement of people moving to city, moving out of agriculture, agriculture has been the foundation, the bedrock, back in society, generations. and has there been several times in the future? it will be afghanistan's incredible farmers lives. okay. his and hers, we'll also bring afghanistan back from the brink at the moment they are facing enormous challenges. as you said, no cache, the banking system isn't working with the business community is not working. the farms had around. they had the ability to have experience. they didn't have to see that it had the fertilizers, they don't have access to all the things that they need. this is what planetary assistance, as well as providing vital life saving assistance, food and all the health care that our colleagues won't to program in unison w h o provide. they also need have their likelihood protected. they need seeds, i need fertilize this. what we're doing in really challenging conditions because their kinetic crisis, which is also driving the deepening monitoring christ,

but also making the delivery of humanitarian assistance. really difficult not impossible, but really difficult. but actually i'm so sorry. i'm sorry, i'm just going to jump in here. i do apologize for should i'm so low on time here, and i'm supposed to say good bye to you now, but i have to ask you very, very quickly, if you were to say one message to the global community now, to the people who are watching this regarding afghanistan, what would you say? every single afghans stole, man, woman and child needs trinitarian assistance, novice amounts that in the coming weeks and months. please do not forget to please not turn your back on the people of afghanistan. thank you. richard crenshaw, the u. s. f o rep in afghanistan. thank you so much for joining us. we're naughty. we really appreciate that was good to have you with us here for the program on ortiz. so i had for you silence all the tweets. a u. s. republican congressman sees his entire account suspended of the calling the nation's 1st transgender forestall

general man. we're back in just a 2nd. ah oh, when i went to the wrong, when all proofs just don't hold any world to see proud disdain. because the african and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look so common ground. this picture tells a 1000 words a 1000 episodes the kaiser are continually just a rosetta stone of me. and kaiser report understanding this me wasn't wearing your

time. i don't know if you've seen it close enough or not, but that stacy wearing a crown in front of burning building. this is the key mean of all means this is the construct. think all you need to know about our modern life in this mean the the, the the, it is. so the russian navy has repelled a pirate attack against the panamanian cargo ship. just off the coast of west africa, the vice admiral collect, cough destroy. i responded to an emergency call from the cargo ship, which said it was under attack from a group of armed militants. as we understand, the marine task force was quickly dispatched and drove the pirates away. and the

russian destroyer is actually part of a group currently patrol in the gulf of guinea, which has become a hot sport for pirate attacks on shipping. while our price searches in the us show no sign of using any time soon. in fact, the secretary of the treasury has said inflation rates now, i'd like you to remain at net decade highs until at least the 2nd half of next year . we'll give you an idea of how it's hitting people in their pocket. so the prices of used cars and stakes have shot up by more than 20 percent. and if you want to eggs with those tags, are going to pay 13 percent more for them now compared to the beginning of this year. furniture, bedding, it's all up by double digit percentage points as well. and us officials say the inflation rate right now is way above the forecasts. the comp charge to the economy has cause disruptions that we will be working through over the next year. and of course, americans haven't seen inflation like we have experienced in a long time. but it's not just us that's been hit hard here. the chief economist

for the international monetary fund warned inflationary pressures around the global stay around the middle of 2022. that's due in part to disruption to supply change during the pandemic. now in the u. k, it's the pores to appear to be getting hit hardest right now. the opposition labor party claim those less well off paying up to 50 percent more on energy bills compared to the wealthier families. well, max kaiser of ortiz, the kaiser report, believes the money printing policies of both london and washington are only exacerbating the crisis. the u. s. is similar to these other countries and that they're all coordinating their central bank policies, and they are all living in this dream world where you can print money forever and have no consequences. when you print trillions and trillions of dollars, it ends up increasing prices. the purchasing power of the money is going to decrease, so everything will cost more if you're using fee money. this is an experiment that

goes back to 1971 when the world went on. if the money standard, and now for 40 years, we've been living in this experiment. and now in 2020 wanted the experiment is blowing up on our faces. purchasing power for fee money is going down. that means that prices for stop are going to go up. and now people are getting hurt by it. so now the money printing is just going directly into the c p, it's going directly into price increases. and once the inflation genie is out of the bottle, there's no way to put it back in expectations are running high. so this is the beginning of a secular inflationary move. the only way to stop it is to raise interest rate down . roger, they're actually raising interest rate. they're doing the right thing. but in the united states, in great britain, they're not raising interest rates. as a matter of fact, they believe that the way to fight this would be the lower rates and to make more money available. so they're actually throwing gasoline on the fire if they were to raise rates, even a quarter of a percentage points they were throw the entire leveraged economy of the u. k. and

britain into complete parallel zation. so they've really put themselves in an untenable position. and i think we're going to see a huge economic dislocation. this is the beginning of a secular inflationary move that's going to cause tremendous damage. us republican congressmen has accused twitter of censorship, pastors official account was suspended. it happened after he called the nation's 1st trans jenda, 4 star general rachel levine. a man twitter said jim banks account violated it's hateful conduct policy. the tweet was deleted back in 2018, twitter updated its policy and prohibited content rules to include mis gendering transgender individuals. congressman bangs, as lashed out of his suspension, saying that calling someone who was born and lived as a man for over 50 years. the 1st female force officer is ultimately an insult to

all women. my treat was a statement of fact big tech doesn't have to agree with me, but they shouldn't be able to cancel me if they silence me, they will silence you. well, it's not the 1st time to it has drawn aia for suspending high profile politicians. of course, lest we forget, the former us president donald trump's account was permanently blocked in the wake of the capitol hill unrest. we chatted with journalist and commented chadwick, moore. he believes the big tech giants are actively shutting down open discussion. well, when it comes to big tech and especially twitter, transgender rhythm is the 3rd rating. everyone sorta knows that is the most touchy topic you can possibly comments on. and the one that probably get the most people suspended, to be honest. and what peter said was that. 3 the congressman suite violated their, their policy again for conduct in harassment and targeting an individual because of their certain protected class being, you know, race, gender, gender identity,

sexuality, what have you, we can't expect big tact, facebook, twitter, any of those things to ever be on, refused to ever be on the side of truth of dialogue, of open discussion. and it's that just upgraded. and it's because they do that is where public discussion takes place and they control the narratives and they decide what to be heard and what not to be heard or seen. ready i mean, twitter been alluded to suspend a sitting president donald trump, for president of the united states. they kicked off the platform. well, they are doing it to anyone they have does everyone there will continue to do it to everyone. and you can check out the discussion on twitter, censorship at the op ed section of r t dot com right now. thanks for joining us for the tuesday program back soon with more. ah, ah .
